According to the Google machine, MS has the lowest prices at $2.66/gal so not sure what Dementia Don is talking about.

But then are grocery prices down? Not that I can see.

ERS research and reporting of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for food contributes to an understanding of which food categories experience substantial price changes, how consumers spend their incomes on food, and how and why prices change.

Mortgage rates are slightly down, so he didn't lie there.

Billions of dollars from tariffs? Possibly, and that will be paid by Americans (companies then perhaps consumers).

But I am on the lookout for that $1.98 gas!
 
The cheapest gas station today is in the middle of Texas:

2.23$

Wait, are you telling me the President lied?
Say it ain't so, Joe! Say it ain't so!

And where are those billions of dollars pouring in from?

He's so full of shit.
 
$2.60 ish here

stable, has been for months , anything under $3.00 is fantastic compared to first few years of Biden

a quick google says "But no state has had an average gasoline price close to $1.98 per gallon in recent weeks. The lowest per-gallon price we could find of all U.S. gas stations was $2.11 at one station, as of April 23, according to a company that tracks prices at stations across the U.S."

$0.13 is pretty close - but still not accurate



I'm calling this a gaffe and moving on
 
More bullshit from Donnie 2 Dolls.

"PRICES HAVE NEVER BEEN LOWER!
THEY'RE EATING THE DOGS!
HIGHEST APPROVAL RATING OF ANY POTUS EVER!"
THAT WAS REALLY AN M-13 TATTOO!"

Two months later: "Everyone knew it was an exaggeration said in jest."
 

Where can I buy gas for $1.98/gallon?​



?? You can get X-tra Double 93 Octane Petrol all over West Trumpistan ... of course.

Lies. It's more lies.
See my sig.
 
Gas prices here in Austria are around 6$ / gallon on average today.

Here in Salzburg, where I live, they are a bit more expensive at 6.40-6.50$ ... but cheaper in other parts of Austria.

That's about 1.40 to 1.56€ per liter.

But that's still one of the cheaper gas prices in Western Europe.

That would be below $2 plus taxes ;)
I paid $2.99 for diesel in Georgia the other day on my way home. First time I have filled up for under $100 in since Trump was president before. That was an outlier though, mid $3.50s generally. Do not if you can help it buy in PA.
 
Could it be?

I'm beginning to wonder if Trump is being sabotaged by his own "advisors", who are deliberately feeding him misinformation, just to make him look like a moron. Now that they've got the White House, they may be looking to get him the 25th Amendment treatment before the midterms. I have no doubt that Vance, who is much smarter than Trump, must have ambitions.

OR - no less likely that Trump really is just a moron.
 

Gas prices keep going down.

Must piss off big oil companies super hard! GOOD!

Obviously, you never studied supply and demand curves.

Please explain... does lower prices make big oil companies happy?

What is your point; is demand lower? And oil companies want lower demand?

I saw it.

In my city, it was a one-day special and only for people using the company gas card.

Our price ranges from $2.29 to $2.59.

It's not lying; it's cherry picking.

One example is enough.

No, you didn't.

Lying while defending Trump's lie is an awfully goofy strategy.

That's bold.

What evidence can you bring to contradict eyewitness testimony?

What is not believable about a company offering a one-day special?

For the record, it was Circle K, headquartered in Dallas. This local news report mentions it as a side note.
